Gold in Search of Direction Friday After Rapidly Shedding Early Gains at Mid-day

Major indices retreated Friday after many set new highs just a day earlier. The pullback was on the tail of soft U.S. Retail Sales and Producer Price Index (PPI) data points early Friday. There was an immediate ~$15/oz jump in December Gold futures pre-market, which more or less held up until about noon (PST), when gold retreated ~12/oz in about 20 minutes. The initial run in gold seemed to be on the back of this economic data that came in below expectations, which could mean slower inflation than anticipated is occurring, potentially pushing back the threat of an interest rate hike. Meanwhile oil posted one of its strongest weekly gains in some time after shedding more than $10/barrel from early June highs of more than $50/barrel to early August lows of sub $40/barrel. To end the week, Gold and Silver were unchanged at $1,336 (↑0.02%),$19.71 (0%), with platinum and palladium finishing lower at $1,122 (↓2.16%) and $685 (↓1.58%) per ounce respectively. Base metals were mixed; nickel (↓4.05%), zinc (↓1.42%) and copper (↓0.64%) finished lower at $4.65, $1.01 and $2.15 respectively, while lead (↑2.86%) finished higher at $0.83 per pound. The WTI crude price gained 6.38%, while the UxC Broker Average Price of uranium was down (↑0.96%) closing at $26.00 per pound on Friday.

Metals Sector Macro

Macroeconomic News

United States: Headlining economic news this week in the U.S, was the nonfarm productivity numbers,

which fell for the third straight quarter. The weak productivity numbers came just after July’s job numbers

showing 255,000 added jobs in the U.S, surpassing expectations of 180,000. The productivity numbers,

which were expected to rise by 0.4% actually dropped -0.5%, nearly matching the -0.6% decline in the

first quarter. The emerging trend of softening productivity, threatens corporate profits over time and

points to a slowdown in the aggressive hiring policies seen so far this year. Overshadowing the

aforementioned jobs numbers, declining productivity has fortified the case to hold off on an interest rate

hike at September’s Fed meeting. Also this week, Import prices rose 0.1%, surpassing expectations of -

0.4% for July. July’s increase represents the fifth straight month of increases. Despite the trend import

prices are still 3.7% lower than they were a year ago. The increase should help bring up inflation, which

has been below Fed targets for several years now. In housing, the MBA mortgage applications for the

week ending August 5th, came out stronger than expected showing a seasonally-adjusted 7.1% increase

in applications. This came after a 3.5% decline from the previous week, and is also the first increase in

four weeks. In conjunction with this news, the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage fell to 3.65% from

3.67% the week earlier. Speculation towards whether the Fed will tighten monetary policy before the end

of the year could have an upward effect on re-financing applications, in an effort to secure a lower rate if

sentiment changes towards a rate hike. Refinancing applications rose 10% for the week, while

applications to purchase a home increased by 2.6% for the week. On the commodity front, The

International Energy Agency (IEA) trimmed its forecast for global oil demand next year to 1.2 million

barrels a day, down 100,000 barrels from its previous forecast. The IEA cited weakened global growth

prospects as a result from the U.K’s decision to leave the European Union, as a key reason for the dimmed

forecast.

United Kingdom: Since the surprise decision to leave the European Union in June, the global economy

has paid close attention to the UK. This week the return on some UK government debt turned negative

after the Bank of England (BOE) missed its targets in a new bond buying program. As part of the BOE’s

new quantitative easing program, the bank offered to buy government bonds (gilts). However, the bank

fell 52m short of its 1.17B target when it failed to find enough sellers, causing prices to rise, pushing yields

down. This week gilts maturing in 2019 and 2020 were yielding -0.1%.

Canada: A slowdown In Canadian construction plans for apartments and condominium complexes in both

B.C and Ontario were a key factors in June’s -5.5% decline in value of Canadian building permits. The

numbers fell well below expectations of a 1.5% gain for the period. Vancouver, in particular saw a stark

decline of 25.2% in plans for multi-family units. This data came before the announced 15% tax on foreign

buyers of B.C. homes, in an effort to cool down the market. Housing starts declined -9.1% in July to

(198.4k), however this number was less severe than the expected -12.5% decline (to 191.0K).

Aurion Resources Ltd. (AU-V, $0.40) - Field Program Expands the Size of Mineralization at Ruoppa

Tara Hassan, [email protected], Mick Carew, [email protected] , Danny Ochoa, PEng, [email protected]

Aurion has begun its 2016 field program on several of its wholly owned gold prospects in the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt of Northern Finland. Several of the prospects have highly anomalous gold in rock and till, with multi-kilometre strike potential. During Q2/16, Aurion was granted an additional 225,000 hectares of exploration licenses prospective for precious and base metals. Outside of the Company’s Joint Venture with B2Gold (BTO-T, Buy Rating, $6.00 Target Price) at Kutuvuoma and Ahvenjarvi, the primary focus this year has been on Ruoppa where Aurion continues to expand the size of the system and outline new high grade gold mineralization.

Cordoba Minerals Corp. (CDB-V, $0.94) - Drilling Unveils Lateral Extensions of Copper-Gold Mineralization at Alacran

Mick Carew, [email protected]

Alacran drill results - The Company released drill results from the San Matias Copper-Gold Project in the northern area of the Alacran Deposit in Colombia that unveiled appreciable intersections of relatively shallow copper-gold mineralization that is now defined laterally over a 250 metre area that is open in all directions. Four the five holes drilled encountered mineralization. These four holes intersected large zones of relatively shallow copper-gold mineralization that represent the up-dip and eastern projections of mineralization encountered in earlier drilling. In addition, two active drill fences ~500 metres and ~700 metres south of the initial lateral step-out drilling have identified zones of visible chalcopyrite, pyrite, and magnetite-bearing mineralization, which highlights the potential for comparable extensions to known copper-gold mineralization that could augment the known size of the system.

Marathon Gold Corp. (MOZ-T, $0.57) - Drilling Continues to Push Resource Envelope at Depth

Mick Carew, [email protected]

Drilling at Marathon highlights further growth potential –Marathon Gold released assay results from six drill holes from the Marathon Gold Deposit, part of the Valentine Lake Cold Camp in Newfoundland. Of the six holes drilled, two were drilled to test the depth extent of gold mineralization within the pit-defined resource area,

two were drilled on the periphery of the resource pit shell, and two were drilled to test the near-surface extension of gold mineralization approximately 300 metres to the southeast (towards the Sprite Deposit) of the mineral resource at Marathon. The pit-defined resource area contains a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource of 195,000 ounces gold at 1.98 g/t (Indicated) and 23,800 ounces gold at 2.64 g/t (Inferred). We note that this is part of a global resource at Valentine Lake totalling 1,060,100 ounces of gold grading 2.20 g/t (measured and indicated) and 200,000 ounces of gold grading 2.85 g/t (inferred). The results are the latest from a 7,000 metre drill program and follows a recent site visit by Haywood last month (see Mining Flash, June 8, 2016).

Kerry Smith, MBA, [email protected], Danny Ochoa, PEng, [email protected]

Q2/15 results beat consensus, but Young-Davidson (YD) has a few issues - Alamos produced 92,464 ounces in Q2, down 2% from 94,632 ounces in Q1. Total cash costs averaged US$775/oz and all-in sustaining cost (AISC) was US$1,037/oz (including US$62/oz of non-cash share-based compensation charges), with cash costs better than our forecast of US$870/oz, and AISC above our estimate of US$965/oz. Q2 cash flow per share came in at US$0.15, below our estimate of US$0.18, but above consensus at US$0.13 per share. Production and costs will be better in H2, and Alamos' cash balance remained flat quarter over quarter at US$273.4M. The three operations generated a total of US$13.4M of free cash flow in Q2, with Mulatos the star performer at US$9.0M as capital -intensive development continues at YD through the ramp-up. Debt stands at US$315M, which is due on April 1, 2020.

Lucara Diamond Corp. (LUC-T, $4.19) – Q2/16 Comes in Light On Lower Revenues and Lower Regular Tender Carat Pricing

Geordie Mark, PhD, [email protected], Benjamin [email protected]

Q2/16 Financials: Lucara reported revenues of US$141 million and EBITDA of US$110 million with operating cash flow (before changes in WC) of US$0.15/sh. Actual results compare with Haywood estimates of revenues of US$169 million and EBITDA of US$131 million with operating cash flow of US$0.17/sh. Revenue, EBITDA and cashflow actuals were shy on our estimates as a result of lower total carats sold (77 kct vs 93 kct) for the quarter, as well as lower than projected average sale prices for regular tender rough diamonds (US$353/ct), and occurred despite operating costs coming in lower than forecast at US$26/t (vs. est. US$28/t).

NexGen Energy Ltd. (NXE-T, $2.43) – Assays Confirm Expansion of Mineralization at A1 Shear in area nearer to A2 and Confirm Continuity of A2 high-grade / sub-zones

Colin Healey, [email protected]

We see the potential of the A1 shear zone to host significant uranium resources improving with each drill hole cutting the zone; in addition to its basic resource prospectivity based on results thus far, A1 has the potential to host a high-grade 'sub-zone' analogous to the A2 sub-zone, based on similarities between holes drilled on the margin of the A2 sub-zone, and those returned from A1.

NexGen Energy Ltd. (NXE-T, $2.55) - Announces Discovery of High-grade Harpoon Area 4.7 km NE Along Trend of Arrow

Colin Healey, [email protected]

Regional drilling as part of NXE's summer drill program has uncovered high-grade uranium mineralization ~4.7 km northeast of Arrow indicated in scintillometer results, on the Rook I project. This new discovery zone, "Harpoon", reportedly contains "high grade" (assays pending) uranium mineralization with dense pitchblende accumulations. Uranium occurrences have now been identified over an incredible mineralized strike length of 5.6 km at the property. The new discovery shows the obvious potential to add resource pounds in new areas at Rook I, and speaks the sheer scale of the mineralizing system crossing the property. The company suggests the intensity of mineralization encountered at Harpoon is analogous to that seen in the high-grade domain of the A2 shear zone, which surrounds the A2 ultra high-grade sub-zone. All of this resource potential is outside our current valuation. We highlight Rio Tinto's interest in the Harpoon area (same terms not applicable to Arrow), and also the proximity to the Hook Lake JV where Cameco/Areva/PurePoint each have an interest.

Mandalay Resources Corp. (MND-T, $1.16) - Q2/16 Financials Present No Surprises

Benjamin [email protected]

Q2/16 Financials - Reported revenues of US$54M and EBITDA of US$22M drove operating cash flow of US$18M or US$0.04/sh. Actual results were marginally above Haywood estimates of US$51M in revenue, EBITDA of US$19M and US$13M or US$0.03/sh in cash flow (consensus at US$0.038/sh). Actual results exceeded our expectations due to higher realized metal prices (above Q2/16 averages) and lower taxes.

Q2/16 Operations - Consolidated production totalled 28.7 koz of gold, 462 koz of silver and 962 tonnes of antimony or 40.4 koz of gold-equivalent at a cash cost of US$748/oz AuEq and all-in cost of US$1,082/oz AuEq. Costerfield: Production of 17.0 koz gold-equiv. at a cash cost of US$530 per ounce. Björkdal: Production of 12.6 koz of gold at a cash cost of US$967 per ounce. Cerro Bayo: Production of 462 koz of silver plus gold (~723 koz AgEq) at a cash cost of US$8.45/oz Ag net.

Richmont Mines Inc. (RIC-T, $13.92) - Q2 CFPS a Slight Miss – but the Longer Term Upside Still Looks Good

Kerry Smith, MBA, [email protected], Danny Ochoa, PEng, [email protected]

Slight miss on Q2 CFPS - Richmont reported Q2 CFPS of $0.19 per share, versus consensus of $0.22 and our estimate of $0.23 per share. Richmont pre-released Q2 production of 23,320 ounces of gold at a cash cost of $903/oz (US$701/oz). Production was expected to decline quarter over quarter and we had been expecting Q2 production of 25,000 ounces, with production coming in slightly below our expectations, due to lower than expected grades in the quarter as a higher percentage of development ore was milled versus plan. In Q2 development ore was 49% of the total ore mined, versus a budget of 40%, leading to lower grades overall from the lower-grade development ore and also higher cost mining. Despite this, costs were very good in Q2 (both unit costs and costs per ounce), with mining costs averaging US$135/t, down from US$146/t in Q1/16. Going forward, as development ore drops closer to the 30% target, grades will rise and costs will continue to decline. Richmont is targeting a long term rate of 30% development ore at Island, which would see mining costs drop to the $85-$90/t range, a 25% decline from current levels. In our view the Island mine has tremendous exploration upside, a mill with capacity for expansion, current development opening up new stoping areas with better grades and a strong C$ gold price (comfortably over C$1,700/oz for a while) the mine is very well positioned for 2017 and on.

SEMAFO Inc. (SMF-T, $6.86) - Boring Is Beautiful….Q2 Results Slightly Ahead of Expectations

Kerry Smith, MBA, [email protected], Danny Ochoa, PEng, [email protected]

Q2 CFPS better than forecast-production in line - In Q2/16, Mana produced 61,300 ounces of gold at a total cash cost of US$547/oz and all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of US$742/oz. We were modelling Q2/16 production of 60,000 ounces at a total cash cost of US$535/oz. Q2 delivered CFPS of US$0.12, versus our model of US$0.11 and consensus of US$0.10 per share.

Rating Structure

Each company within an analyst’s universe, or group of companies covered, is assigned: (i) a recommendation or rating, usually

BUY, HOLD, or SELL; (ii) a 12 month target price, which represents an analyst’s current assessment of a company’s potential

stock price over the next year; (iii) an overall risk rating which represents an analyst’s assessment of the company’s overall

investment risk; and (iv) specific risk ratings or risk profile parameters which in their aggregate support an analyst’s overall risk

rating. These ratings are more fully explained below. Before acting on our recommendation we caution you to confer with your

Haywood investment advisor to determine the suitability of our recommendation for your specific investment objectives, risk

tolerance and investment time horizon.

Recommendation Rating

BUY –The analyst believes that the security will outperform other companies in their sector on a risk adjusted basis or for the

reasons stated in the research report the analyst believes that the security is deserving of a (continued) BUY rating.

HOLD – The analyst believes that the security is expected to perform in line with other companies in their sector on a risk

adjusted basis or for the reasons stated in the research report the analyst believes that the security is deserving of a (continued)

HOLD rating.

SELL – Investors are advised to sell the security or hold alternative securities within the sector. Stocks in this category are

expected to under-perform other companies on a risk adjusted basis or for the reasons stated in the research report the analyst

believes that the security is deserving of a (continued) SELL rating.

TENDER – The analyst is recommending that investors tender to a specific offering for the company’s stock.

RESEARCH COMMENT – An analyst comment about an issuer event that does not include a rating or recommendation.

UNDER REVIEW – Placing a stock Under Review does not revise the current rating or recommendation of the analyst. A stock

will be placed Under Review when the relevant company has a significant material event with further information pending or

to be announced. An analyst will place a stock Under Review while he/she awaits sufficient information to re-evaluate the

company’s financial situation.

COVERAGE DROPPED – Haywood Securities will no longer cover the issuer. Haywood will provide notice to clients whenever

coverage of an issuer is discontinued.

Haywood’s focus is to search for undervalued companies which analysts believe may achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns.

This research coverage on potentially undervalued companies may result in an outweighed percentage of companies rated as

BUY. Management regularly reviews rating and targets in all sectors to ensure fairness and accuracy.

Overall Risk Rating

Very High Risk: Venture type companies or more established micro, small, mid or large cap companies whose risk profile

parameters and/or lack of liquidity warrant such a designation. These companies are only appropriate for investors who have a

very high tolerance for risk and volatility and who are capable of incurring temporary or permanent loss of a very significant

portion of their investment capital.

High Risk: Typically micro or small cap companies which have an above average investment risk relative to more established or

mid to large cap companies. These companies will generally not form part of the broad senior stock market indices and often

will have less liquidity than more established mid and large cap companies. These companies are only appropriate for investors

who have a high tolerance for risk and volatility and who are capable of incurring a temporary or permanent loss of a significant

loss of their investment capital.

Medium-High Risk: Typically mid to large cap companies that have a medium to high investment risk. These companies will

often form part of the broader senior stock market indices or sector specific indices. These companies are only appropriate for

investors who have a medium to high tolerance for risk and volatility and who are prepared to accept general stock market risk

including the risk of a temporary or permanent loss of some of their investment capital

Moderate Risk: Large to very large cap companies with established earnings who have a track record of lower volatility when

compared against the broad senior stock market indices. These companies are only appropriate for investors who have a

medium tolerance for risk and volatility and who are prepared to accept general stock market risk including the risk of a

temporary or permanent loss of some of their investment capital.

Risk Profile Parameters – Mining and Minerals Sector

Forecast Risk: High (7-10) – The Company’s primary project(s) is at an earlier stage of exploration and/or resource delineation

whereby grades, tonnages, capital and operating costs, and other economic/operational parameters are not yet reliably

established. Moderate (4-6) – The Company has taken steps to de-risk its primary producing, or soon to be producing project(s)

and has established reasonably reliable operational and economic parameters. Low (1-3) – The Company has de-risked the

majority of its primary project(s) through operational history and established production profile(s).

Financial Risk: High (7-10) – The Company’s near- and medium-term (capital) expenditure considerations, including the current

year or next forecast year, are not fully funded through a combination of established debt facilities, cash on hand, and/or

anticipated cash flow from existing operations—successful project execution depends, in part, on future (equity) financing(s).

Existing and/or forecast levels of leverage are above average relative to the Company’s peer group. The risk of a significant

capital cost overrun(s) is high given the early stage of project development. Moderate (4-6) – The Company’s near-term (capital)

expenditure program, in the current year or next forecast year, is fully funded through a combination of established debt

facilities, cash on hand, and/or anticipated cash flow from existing operations. Medium-term funding requirements will likely

require additional financing consideration, but should be achievable assuming no significant uncontrollable events impede

access to capital. Existing and/or forecast levels of leverage are in-line with the Company’s peer group. The risk of a significant

capital cost overrun(s) is moderate given the advanced stage of project development. Low (1-3) – the Company’s near- and

medium-term (capital) expenditure program is fully funded through a combination of established debt facilities, cash on hand,

and/or anticipated cash flow from existing operations. Existing and/or forecast levels of leverage are below average relative to

the Company’s peer group.

Valuation Risk: High (7-10) – The current valuation is at a premium to peers. The valuation reflects considerable future

exploration success and/or commodity appreciation. Where applicable, the current capitalization exceeds the “DCF” evaluation

by more than 50%. Moderate (4-6) – The current valuation is within historic ranges and generally consistent with peers. The

valuation reflects reasonable exploration success and/or commodity appreciation. Where applicable, the current capitalization

exceeds the DCF valuation by 15% to 50%. Low (1-3) – The current valuation is at the low end of historic ranges and at a discount

to peer valuations. The valuation reflects limited new exploration success and no commodity appreciation. Where applicable,

the current capitalization exceeds the DCF valuation by less than 15% or falls below the current market value.

Political Risk: High (7-10) –Obtaining permits is challenging. Properties are located in an area(s) with high geo-political

uncertainty, limited access, and/or have significant new infrastructure requirements. Moderate (4-6) – Properties are located

in an area(s) with moderate geo-political risk, reasonable or manageable access, and some established infrastructure. Low (1-

3) – Properties are located in areas with a manageable geo-political risk profile and established access/infrastructure.
